Sorry for triple post, but I meant with blue bomb.

I don't know how to edit posts, but I've seen other people double post... Sorry for quad posting, but I find that if you get when an enemy is mid jump between platforms, not levels, only it's animations slows down, but it does not slow down until it's next jump.

I discovered:If you place two bombs next to a Bombino, and they both hit him, only the first one counts for order. This means that you can safely bomb-jump out of the fray on 54 after you place your first bomb, and still get the giant crystal.
While this is true for order, beware that it doesn't work the same way for combo / big bang. If you do this on level 54, for example, you will not get a big bang of six. The crystal sequence starts over for the second explosion. (Still, oddly enough, the set of Bombinos you hit twice don't have to be the last few in the order.)

Likewise, a normal enemy's big-bang group is determined by the last bomb that hits it.

p.s. @ANS, is rumoured to be an effect item (if it existed), so your screenie would have been more convincing if you had put it in the effect item spawn point. But then again, I suppose the whole point of the image was that you couldn't reach it.

Made a couple discoveries playing Ninjustu on the french server.

If a is the target, when it stomps and when it's knocked out (by a blue bomb or or similar object) the little skull vanishes momentarily.

When you kill the target peach, the next two crystals in order will fall in place of two mini peaches.

Also, if you pell a lychee and then get , you won't get the big crystal.

Urgh, peel, PEEL!

After you make a post, the "Back to Thread" link doesn't work (it takes you to the topic list instead), but the "Thread" link at the top does.

You can bomb-jump in midair while holding Up and Right, but not while holding Up and Left. (At least, that's how it is on my computer.) You have to let go of one of them before Igor will drop a bomb. Also, your computer might beep at you in a complaining fashion if you hold down too many other keys. Found that out while messing around in 2P mode.

On 23.5, from the button platform, you can triple-jump to the series of ledges closest to the exit portal. Only one saw-dodge required!

In PD62, the rings seem to spawn faster when you clear a level by completing CRISTAL. (Is that true, or was I imagining things?)

On 64.1, if you knock the top lemon down onto the 2x1 platform under its box, it will jump across the 2-square gap to the left and suicide on the spikes.

This is probably already known, but the fruits can appear early on 86 (while the small platforms and black crystal are still invisible) if you bomb-jump high across the room with .

It's possible to bomb-jump across the gap in 87 if you have at least two bombs or the at your disposal. A bit quicker and surer than using the red bomb (which seems to spring you up too high and put you back where you started more often than not).

Few things are more enjoyable than strategically using the teleporters against the enemies on 89.

How to say this without undue spoilers? Right, you know that part of the Tuber fight where an arrow appears? It's possible to hit him right in the middle of that sequence. Pretty satisfying. (I just did it twice in a row by accident.)

Er, one thing I figured out. o-o

If you are dead while the last fruit or whatever dies, the big will not fall. Happened to me 3 times in one level. XD More in others.

Crazy Fish Happenings:
1) I got a on 56, and finished the level normally (i.e. no ), but the crystals didn't fall. Then I got a on 57 (the next level), and ten blue crystals fell at the end of the level. Why ? Who knows ? (It can't have to do with the apricots, because both levels have apricots, and on both levels I killed all large enemies before killing the babies.)
2) I got a on 72.4, after I had killed all the lemons, so the crystals didn't fall. Instead, they fell at the start of 75 (which was annoying, considering I was trapped inside where I couldn't grab any of them. ) There is no mystery here, it's just annoying.
3) When you get after a fish, the crystals fall immediately. This is probably known by all, but I am only clarifying.

is stronger than , but is more common. WHYY ?? It makes no sense.

If you reload the page with the actual game on it (before clicking to start your game), your browser will resend the form, thus keeping any checkbox modes you selected. Be careful: if your browser doesn't warn you about resending the form, you'll need to re-check the boxes.

If or appears right where you are standing, they are short enough that you can jump straight upward without picking them up. If there is a platform above you, you can land on it ... otherwise, you may be able to safely land beside the shades.

I forgot to mention my theory about [ 59 60 ], based on Fish Happening #1:

This happening could only have been explained by a glitch. So probably, the crystals are supposed to fall at the start of level 60, but sometimes there is a glitch and they don't fall until the next checkpoint, end of 60. Why this glitch is far more common on 60 than on other levels I can't say.

On the other hand, I think I did get on 56, so I might have actually gotten before the , in which case this point is moot. I can't recall.

multiplies the items, but the co. stays the same. VERY good item if you get a co.5.

Also, if you have choppers hat on level 64 and you are lucky enough to get a or , you can easily get a big (my FIRST!) and see that chopped bombs, contrary to what i thought, are counted as different, and so start the count all over again...
